778: Chapter 772: Visiting the Place of Legend 778: Chapter 772: Visiting the Place of Legend Winter passed and spring arrived, and Gu Youyou’s life seed to have undergone no significant changes, her daily schedule packed full.
She had businesses to run across various regions, and from ti to ti, she would see patients who sought her out by reputation, and every day, she still had to write stories for Tian Jizi.
Every month, account books from various places were delivered to her hands, and Jin Zijin would return to the mountain once a month, bringing with him the dicines Gu Youyou had prepared.
He claid, “Master is ill, no matter how busy, one mustn’t forget Master.”
After seeing off Jin Zijin, she would imrse herself once again, delving deeply into the increasingly perfected laboratory.
“Useless!” A cold, elderly yet steady voice suddenly appeared behind her, giving Gu Youyou quite a fright.
With her keen senses, the number of people who could approach her silently were few.
She turned abruptly, only to see Tian Jizi standing behind her at so point.
At that mont, Tian Jizi’s eyes were clear, and his gentle gaze occasionally flashed a hint of sharpness.
Gu Youyou knew this was a ti when he was not confused.
Gu Youyou didn’t dare to be negligent, quickly getting up and respectfully saying, “Heavenly Master Senior.”
“Mm!” Tian Jizi humd in acknowledgnt, glancing at the row of shelves behind Gu Youyou.
A bunch of colorful little bottles were placed there.
“Do you know about the legend of Sun Zhuzhao and Dark Moon Youying?”
Gu Youyou, lowering her gaze, said softly, “I have…
heard of it.”
“Oh?
Heard of it?” Tian Jizi raised his eyebrows and said, “Let’s hear it.”
Gu Youyou recounted in detail the story about the two Sacred Beasts, Sun Zhuzhao and Dark Moon Youying, that Jin Zijin had once told her.
After listening, Tian Jizi frowned deeply, his eyes turning a few degrees colder, and asked, “Was it Zijin who told you this?”
“Ah…?” Gu Youyou was startled, suddenly feeling like she had said sothing she shouldn’t have, extrely foolish of her.
The legend of this story was surely not known by everyone, and even among those who knew it, as the tale was passed on, it must have spawned nurous different versions.
The version they told was certainly different from what the Dao Family had passed down.
What Jin Zijin had said was certainly specific to the Dao Family and particularly to the Tianzong lineage.
She had told Tian Jizi honestly when he asked.
How could she be so foolish?
Gu Youyou slapped her own mouth and said with a stiff neck, “Yes, he told .”
Tian Jizi snorted and said, “You don’t need to hide it from .
How could I not know what he does when he returns to the mountain?
I raised him with my own hands.
It’s alright; after all, he is originally from the secular world, and his heart is not with the Dao Sect anyway.”
He looked at the array of bottles and jars in front of Gu Youyou and said, “Do you feel as though these dicines should be able to detoxify, but the effects when you take them are disappointing?”
Gu Youyou was taken aback and looked up at Tian Jizi.
He had bluntly revealed the truth?
This was the very issue she had been unable to fathom, no matter how hard she tried.
Could it be that he knew sothing?
“Please enlighten , senior!”
Tian Jizi tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, “Considering you’ve been ‘treating’ , I can give you a hint.”
“What hint?” Gu Youyou asked, sowhat excited.
“If you have the chance, go and have a look at that legendary place.”
Gu Youyou: “…”
“Where exactly is that place?”
Tian Jizi, however, kept her in suspense, smiled mysteriously, turned around with his hands behind his back, and left.
Moving as lightly as drifting clouds, embodying the essence of Immortals, he disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if he had never been there in the first place.
Gu Youyou witnessed this astonishing scene that one would only expect to see on television, almost not believing her own eyes.
